Power Trim
If additional ground clearance is required, the outboard should be tilted up using an accessory outboard support device. Refer
to your local dealer for recommendations. Additional clearance may be required for railroad crossings, driveways, and trailer
bouncing.
IMPORTANT: Do not rely on the power trim/tilt system or tilt support lever to maintain proper ground clearance for trailering.
The outboard tilt support lever is not intended to support the outboard for trailering.
Shift the outboard to forward gear. This prevents the propeller from spinning freely.
